Courtney Barnett at The Enmore

Overview

Courtney Barnett has amassed a far-reaching international fanbase thanks to her endlessly laidback and relatable brand of indie-folk. With three solo albums, a Kurt Vile collaborative LP, a nomination for Best New Artist at the Grammys and spots on just about every major music festival across the globe, Barnett is set to make a triumphant return to Sydney stages in support of her most assured album to date, Things Take Time, Take Time.

You can catch Courtney and her band on stage at the newly renovated Enmore Theatre as part of  Great Southern Nights on Friday, March 25, with support from Wergaia and Wemba Wemba singer-songwriter Alice Skye, who's 2021 album I Feel Better But I Don't Feel Good arrived with all the charm and honesty of Barnett's music.

If you're looking to make March an even more Courtney Barnett-filled month, there's also a documentary on her called Anonymous Club, playing at Palace and Ritz Cinemas across NSW. The film follows Courtney on tour for three years between the release of her second and third album, providing intensely personal insight into her inner monologue and mental health through an audio diary she kept at the time.

Great Southern Nights is facilitating a heap of gigs across Sydney and regional NSW, ranging from icons like Jimmy Barnes popping up in western Sydney or Archie Roach performing in Wagga Wagga, through to emerging acts like hyped young R&B singer Liyah Knight headlining a night of local music and DJs at Zetland's 107 Projects. You can find the full program at the Great Southern Nights website.
